Über das Buch
This book documents Jonathan Soard's contribution to a photographic essay/exhibit of the New Harmony Bridge, the future of which is in question, at the Working Men’s Institute Museum and Library.

After years of public service, this unique toll bridge in Posey Co., Indiana is closed for want of maintenance. Its future is in question for want of a purpose and the means to fund it.

Brooklyn-based artist Jonathan Soard and New Harmony artist Mary Ann Michna exhibited their complementary but distinct photographic observations of the bridge at the historic Working Men’s
Institute Museum and Library, from May 7 through June 30 with a public opening/artist reception, on Thursday May 7, 2015, from 5-7pm.

I am most at peace while drawing. I’m in the moment, chewing up a shape in space. Drawing the figure – raw, vulnerable, naked, even flayed – is a conduit for understanding not only the form but also what lies beneath the surface. Gross anatomy per se isn’t my concern. Rather, there’s something sensual, nearly succulent, about discovering what is hidden. I see the live animal as I draw the carcass. I see the spirit as I draw the body. For me, creating art is not necessarily to portray or represent. It is, rather, a tactile and intellectual experience that leads to spiritual ingestion. To draw is to devour.
